Strip Steve’s Delta Disco EP is amazing, it sounds like it should have came out on Roule. Crystal made this vid for “Breakin” – Pick up this EP if you do not have it yet!

What a weird dance pop tune. Reminds me of Mr. Oizo, especially those drums. I love Primary 1’s voice. His track with The Shoes is fantastic especially the Siriusmo remix. This obscure comedic funk is what dance music needs.

Jonathan Boulet is one of Modular Records newest acts, an Aussie singer/songwriter crafting lovely introspective pop tunes. Jimmy LaValle’s The Album Leaf, one of my favorite acts of the past ten years adds his signature glitched out, swarming synth touch to this already melancholy track. Beautiful. Jonathan Boulet’s album is out 12.4.2009 and The Album Leaf’s new album “A Chorus of Storytellers” is out 2.2.2010, oh joy!

Two weeks ago, Cazals announced that they were splitting to pursue each of their own musical endeavours. Daniel (lead guitar) is now pursuing Blank Space a new wave, guitar and synth driven solo project. Phil (singer) is no pursuing his own solo project he is hoping to launch in the new year. Warren and Luca C. are now part of the I Blame Coco’s live band – Coco Sumner’s (Sting’s Daughters) band. And as you all know Luca C. and Martin Dubka have been busy producing and co-writing Ali Love’s new solo album, an album I looking very forward to. It is very unfortunate that this great brit-rock band have split, a band that has been championed by Daft Punk, Andre, and Kitsune, just to name a few. I’m looking forward to all their future projects.

Luca C. has teamed up with Brigante to bring back that classic cosmic disco sound that electronic is in need of these days. The duo re-visions Ali Love’s “Diminishing Returns” as a cosmic italo acid track, 303 bassline included.

Villa is a Belgian producer that is bring back the glorious sounds of cosmic, italo and balearic disco. Sequence basslines galore! I am loving Villa’s remix of Music Go Music – it is such a classic disco sounding song, there is a little nod to ABBA with that twinkling piano melody from “Gimmie, Gimmie, Gimmie”. Villa also has an upcoming remix for Ali Love’s “Smoke and Mirrors” – definitely something to look forward to. This is some heavy cosmic balearic beats – looking forward to more productions from Villa.

This remix is a total tribute to Moroder with that “I Feel Love” bassline.

Plus Move abandons their banger sound for a more electro-pop vibe, auto-tune included. They are developing a live act as well with live bass, synth, and vocals. “Just Me” has a very Chromeo pop vibe with a touch of Kanye and is sort of a comical/self-aware, mocking tune. Dope artwork.
